I'm not sure a feature dubbed as "alpha" should have an acceptance test 🤔

[lokijuhy]

I don't know if this is an appropriate PR to leave Changeling comments, since I didn't get to comment on the initial PR ?

Sorry @lokijuhy the Files changed tab was showing a bunch of changes totally unrelated to the PR (now fixed -- I rebased to the release branch).

Do you mind moving the release/feature change requests to the release PR?

Why not? The feature is labeled as "alpha" because we want to be reasonably sure everything is working as expected before users rely on it.

With this acceptance test, we check that other changes to the system don't accidentally break the feature. It seems reasonable to add one now since there are newly introduced components that are not covered by any other test.

@lorenzo-cavazzi the test seems to have failed in the last run

[rokroskar]

That test seems to be somewhat flaky recently

[leafty]

It's the new test from this PR! So it should be checked if this is because there is an issue with user secrets in this PR's deployment or if the test is not robust.

[lorenzo-cavazzi]

Yes, we should not merge this "as is". Somehow, the test fails much more frequently than it should. From the videos, it seems that starting the session takes forever, but when doing it manually it's almost always quicker.
My plan is to:

1. Further investigate the problem
2. Modify the useSession test since it's currently the slowest and it can be split into multiple tests; ideally, some of the changes from the "Start with options" page can also be combined, no need to start too many separate sessions since most of the time goes there
